History
The station was not included in the original plan for Line 12. In response to the planning needs of Tangxi Station of the National Railway (now Guangzhou Baiyun railway station), the western section of Line 12 was moved to the north, and the construction of Nanhang Xincun station was added.[2] Since the name of the station project includes the name of the enterprise (which is not allowed), the authorities renamed it Tangchong station in 2025 according to the Tangchong Economic Cooperative where the station is located.[3][4]
On 27 March 2025, the station completed the "three rights" transfer.[5] On 29 June 2025, the station was opened.[6]
